Jesse has just released an update to Mandelbulb 3D: version 1.7.7. It's available - free as always! - from: www.fractalforums.com/index.ph… at FractalForums.com.

Details of the update:

- Several bug and glitch removals. - Replaced the average DE combinate method with an inverting and max comb. - The animation rendering generates "dummy" output files, so many computers can render on the same output directory with the "not overwrite existing files" option checked. - Big renders output tiles can be "single numbered" used by stitching programs. - Maps can be numbered up to 32000 instead of 255. - Rightclick options on formula tab headers to move and copy formulas. - Formula update. - Added some more DIFS shapes.
